(1) the first account actually loads javscript
(2) subsequent accounts do not
(3) all of the user agent switchers for subsequent accounts need newer versions of chrome
this is extremely depressing.
i have no intention of purchasing another chromebook. if they're going to block search functionality, i'll have to turn it into a linux device.
it's very frustrating. at least i have a better understanding of what's been happening, but i'm upset about this.
for now, i see no other option besides running two chromebooks sat the same time - one logged in for services and the other logged out for search. but i can do that right now on this device, logged into the stub account, and i'll have to stick with that for now.
